Chapter 90 90: Gossip among the villagers

"Brother, don't tell me, it's really different when you have money in your pocket.

I dare to speak loudly and forcefully now, but if you were talking before, you would always speak in a low voice, asking others to do things in a humble way, for fear that they would reject us. "

"Just now the owner of the brick factory nodded and bowed to us politely, and even gave us tea to drink.

I had never received such treatment before. When I heard that we were going to build a two-story red brick house, my attitude changed instantly. "Su Dazhu also looked filled with joy.

I sighed about what happened just now, feeling happy in my heart.

"Brother, especially when we paid for it just now, the boss of the red brick factory almost had his eyes popping out of his head. It was probably the first time he had seen so much money."

"Oh, now I know the benefits of being rich. I can straighten my back no matter what I do, and I no longer have to feel the glare of others. Being rich is a pleasure."

"Dad, why don't you look happy at all?"

"What do you know? This is called joyful laughter, it is invisible.

You two are still too young. "

"Tch, dad, just hold it. You are obviously enjoying yourself in your heart, and you said that the two of us can't hold it."

"that is!"

"Two bastards!" Old Man Su shook his head with a smile.

"We still have to go to the Shachang Tile Factory to order the things we need to order."

"Now the red brick factories are starting to make pre-orders, and I'm afraid the sand and tile factories are also doing booming business."

“Dad, how many tiles do we need?

We now estimate there will be six rooms downstairs and six rooms upstairs.

If calculated as three floors, we would have to build about 20 rooms in total. "

"It's probably more than 3 yuan for tiles. If we can't do it, we can tell the boss that it's the same as the red brick factory. The more we pay, the less we pay. We'll order [-] yuan for tiles first. When the price is not enough, we can ask him to make up for it. "

"Dad, can we not use tiles? Just seal them. I see that all the tube buildings in the city look like this."

"Are you stupid? If there were no tiles, all the water would drip onto the roof.

Maybe water will seep into the roof soon, so these tiles must be installed. "

"Yeah, I'm too excited."

"Look back next to the house, if there is still space, we will make another big cellar.

When the fence is built in the yard, we will make the fence higher.

In this way, people in the village will not be able to see what is going on in our courtyard.

Then set up a small vegetable garden in the yard, plant some fruit trees and the like, and put a grapevine under it to sit under the shade in the summer. That would be a wonderful life. "Old man Su fantasized about the days after building the house.

"Dad, don't say anything. Just say it like this. I can't wait to build the new house and move in."

"At that time, we will be able to have a panoramic view of the scene in the village. From the second floor, we can see the liveliness of the village."

The current situation in their home is that the privacy is too poor. Although the fence has been raised, it is still a bit unsafe.

Keeping such a big secret makes the whole family worried.

"The red bricks cost two cents and a half, and the tiles cost three and six cents. We just ordered bricks worth 2000 yuan, which cost more than 1000. Later, tiles worth 3000 yuan will probably cost more than [-], plus It’s more than [-]."

“Fortunately, my boss is kind-hearted, so I will take care of his business and pay the transportation fee, so we can deliver it to our door for free.

Originally, if shipping fees were added, it would probably cost an extra hundred yuan.

The transportation fee for one car is ten yuan. "

“It’s all hard money earned, and they have to load the truck for us during transportation back and forth.

Labor costs, car fuel consumption, losses, etc., all require money, and this boss is really kind. " Su Dazhu sighed. "When our house is built later, let's invite people to come to our house for a meal. "Old man Su also kept this sentiment in his heart.

After they paid the deposit just now, the boss immediately notified the staff to arrange three large trucks for the employees to load.

One trip can transport bricks costing 6000 to [-] yuan. Fortunately, the open space is large enough to accommodate so many bricks.

The engineering team hired was also from the city, with twenty or thirty people. The progress was very fast in one day, and machines were also used.

When the father and son returned home, the open space in the new yard was already filled with red bricks.

People in the village are particularly curious about trucks transporting goods back and forth.

It is said that there are indeed many people building houses with red bricks in this village, which is not unusual.

But this was the first time they had seen such a big deal, with several trucks of red bricks being transported to their village.

Mrs. Su looked at the red brick and sighed at the old man's speed in getting the red brick back so quickly.

At noon, the foreman over there came to remind me when the red bricks would be shipped back.

So many red bricks were obtained in the afternoon, and the foreman immediately speeded up the work.

"The three of you, father and son, are quite fast at getting things done. Are the watermelons easy to sell?"

"Mom, let me tell you, those watermelons are always easy to sell.

In the evening, my father and I have to go to town to buy a set of watermelons. Before the freshness wears off, we can take a few more carts to sell them. "

Su Hanlin sat at the door and watched people building houses. She was still very curious about building houses during this period.

Aunt Chen next door heard the commotion and came out. When she saw Mrs. Su at the door of Su's house, she started to get close to her.

"That's Aunt Su. She just built a new house, which made a lot of noise.

How big of a house do you plan to build this time? With these red bricks, maybe five or six rooms will be laid, right? "

The villagers who came to eat the melon pricked up their ears. They also wanted to know how many houses the old Su family planned to build due to the huge noise in building houses this time.

There are so many people in Lao Su's family, and they don't have five or six rooms to build. I'm afraid this new house won't be of much use.

"Everyone knows that our Xiao Su family has a prosperous population and the children are getting older. This old house is not enough to live in, so we plan to build seven or eight new houses first." Mrs. Su narrowed her eyes and said with a smile.

"Seven or eight rooms? Is that enough to live in? Now that the fifth and sixth children are back, I will have to marry the fifth one.

The sixth child is nothing, a girl can live in her husband's family after she gets married.

Just seven or eight houses are not enough to live in. At least we have to build [-] or [-] houses. "

"So, we plan to build a two-story building. If there is not enough room in the future, we will put quilts on top. Right now, there are seven or eight rooms. It will be enough for our family first."

When everyone heard this, they were stunned.

It has never been heard of to cover it with two layers and then add more if it is not enough.

Just now, someone casually said that eight out of ten rooms were built, just to find out the background of the Su family.

Of course Mrs. Su knew what they were thinking, "Our fifth and sixth son came back and originally planned to build a bigger house.

But, our family is like this. Both children are foraging in the fields and their abilities are limited, so we plan to build the second floor first and talk about it later. "

"Lao Wu and Lao Liu came back from the army this time, and they did bring a lot of bonuses and allowances, which they have saved over the past few years.

Now the money to build the house at home is contributed by the two brothers and sisters. "Mrs. Su explained the money to build the house.

In this way, no one will say that their family's money came from improper sources.

"Don't you make any money from your business? I think your business is pretty good."
